WHEN RIDING LOSES ITS THRILL.
HM
There is nothing better than a daily ride to keep the bodycajdsurain in a healthy, active condition. It is for this reason that rkiing is a favourite exercise among those who can afford it la most countries of the world.
But it happens sometimes that even to its most ardent devotee riding ceases to boa pleasure; he rain that he quickly gets tired, is conscious of a lose of confidence and enthusiasm.
Why this stalepess? The answer almost invariably is that for one reason or another something has gone wrong internally, the blood in t fault, the serves are run-down, and so tha whole system has ceased to function properly
Such symptoms should not be neglected, and they can be easily and quickly remedied, as a rule, if promptly and properly treated. For instance innumerable people have found in a short course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, the world's most famous blood builder and nerve tonic, just the treat- ment needed.

The prescription of an eminent physician, an M.D. of Edinburgh University, these pill contain Iron in form which is readily assimilated and quickly absorbed into the blood. Recently in Cannen over one hundred people had their blood tested before and after taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to see what improvement in iron and health they had gained. The tests Irrefutably proved that Dr. Williams Pink Pills definitely increases the iron in the blood and that health and vitality and resistance, to disease are greatly improved. In taking Dr. Williams Pink Pills you are using a "tested" remedy. If you are suffering from any of the consequences of impoverished blood, digestive weakness, nerve troubles, headaches, Insomnin, rkoumation, scintion, lumbago, premature ageing, or the aches and pains peculiar to women, bogin your cure to-day with Dr. Williams' Pink Pillste they are sold by chemists everywhere.
